cannondale stealth bike 1 Cannondale Stealth Concept Bike

Today we got a first look at the Cannondale “Stealth” concept bike. Aside from the looks, the bike has a lot of impressive features, including a special new fork construction in all carbon fibre, as well as a monocoque carbon frame. The matt paint is just another point of attraction. Inspired by the Stealth fighter jet, the Cannondale bike is an impressive piece of sports equipment that we will hopefully soon see on the market.

Many more detailed shots of the bike follow after the jump.

Fitted Hawaii “The Ki’s” Pack | New Era Cap, T-Shirt, Skate Deck

fitted hawaii the kis 1 Fitted Hawaii The Kis Pack | New Era Cap, T Shirt, Skate Deck

We present you the latest pack from Fitted Hawaii, entitled The Ki’s. The pack, which consists of a New Era cap, a t-shirt and a skateboard deck, pays homage to Waikiki.

“Starting with the cap, it features an all over print of the many subtleties that are associated with Waikiki, full moons, tropical flowers, palm trees and the calm ocean, which runs under the brim as well. The inside features a really gangster, neon green sating lining with the infamous tri-lock pattern which gives it more “oomph.” The tee is printed on all black and features a 3M reflective tri-lock print on the front, the crown on the back, Aloha Served Daily on the right sleeve and the crest on the right. And as you read up above a little earlier, we are proud to introduce our first ever Fitted skateboard deck in which we collaborated with APB (A’ala Park Boardshop) on. The deck utilizes the same “Ki’s” print as seen on the hat, on both the top and bottom of the skate deck.”

More images follow after the jump.

element imaginary foundation decks Element x Imaginary Foundation Skatedecks

Element has collaborated with Imaginary Foundation on a series of skatedecks.

“The Imaginary Foundation is a think tank from Switzerland that does experimental research on new ways of thinking and the power of the imagination. They hold dear a belief in human potential and seek progress in all directions. The small clandestine team is headed up by the mysterious “Director,” a 70 something uber intellectual who’s father founded the Dadist movement. Avoiding direct publicity the team has sought streetwear as an unlikely vehicle for bringing their ideas beyond the academic realm and into popular culture.”

Visually the graphics by Imaginary Foundation have always been directly identifiable, which is also the case with the skatedecks. Look out for a release in the coming weeks.

lakai manchester select japan Lakai Japan Select Collection | Manchester & Carroll

Just like many other US brands, also Lakai produces a special collection for the Japanese market that comes out with lots of interesting styles every season. Here we give you a look at the Manchester Select and the Carroll Select that have just come out at Mita.

The Lakai Manchester Select looks great. All red upper, white details – a super clean sneaker that you can wear with pretty much anything. About the Carroll Select we are less excited. Black patent leather upper and all-over design just seems like it was something that worked yesteryear.

You can have a look after the jump.
